Unity Technologies has released the full version of its short film The Heretic. The first part of the film was first showing at GDC in 2019. It was designed to showcase Unity’s High Definition Rendering Pipeline, the VFX Graph, and create a realistic digital human. Watch it on YouTube and read more on the Unity blog.
That character is really one of the most innovative designs I’ve seen in games. I doubt it runs in real-time so I’m curious how long a frame takes. If this is what we can expect from the next-gen consoles I’ll be very impressed – but I really doubt they’ll be able to. Sure, lots of it is instanced particles even so the overdraw must be extremely demanding. Hopefully we’ll find out more at GDC.
